What is letterpress die cutting?
Letterpress die cutting uses a thin steel rule die to cut and score one sheet at a time. This method is used for those designs with a critical register of bleeds with a minimum of wrap over the fold and those with minimum image shift of borders or other design elements. Letterpress work must be printed one-up on a larger sheet than for high die cutting because more gripper area is needed. Please see our letterpress sheet size guide and letterpress job checklist.
